I've been having pimples lately - is that a turn off?

[Anonymous]

i never had so many, I mean they are tiny but all over my face, I use foundation to cover but you can still see that isn't a flawless skin, I am trying to flirt with this guy but now I am self conscious about my pimples should I wait for them to go away?

i think I am having them because I am way too stressed...

so my zits seems like hers link you can see that is hidden because of make up as color goes but its there ...

[swisschocolate]

Zits suck but guys are more forgiving or accepting of them. Don't let them hold you back. Wear juicy lipgloss, & sexy (not to heavy) perfume, start an engaging and interesting convo. That way he will not focus on your tiny zits. Just Be confident and go flirt!

[Scoopie]

oh my god... like anyone's skin is flawless. It may look like they do, but they don't really. Come on, if a guys judges you so quickly because of some pimples, he's not worth it at all. If you're that afraid just wait until they disappear and start flirting.

[Asker]

yeah you are right...and I don't think they will go away anytime soon guess I have to give it a try and maybe see how shallow he is..

[Scoopie]

The zits in the photo are barely visible. Are you really worried about that?

Personally I don't find girls attractive that have a lot of makeup as she should be okay with the way she is and not try to cover everything up.

[Asker]

well those were a lot of make up not everyday make up but makes the skin smoother so you don't notice them and yeah I worry about similar case

[Scoopie]

So I notice zits on girls, it's not that like a couple of zits will make me stop liking her altogether... makes no sense. I like spending time with her, talking to her, so what if she's got some imperfections on her skin. I certainly don't have flawless skin, and sometimes worry about it when I see a pretty girl, but in the end I don't really care. I'd rather have a girl with imperfect skin, than a girl who's a B and mean.

If they are just little zits then it probably wouldn't bother me too, much. Hell, under the right circumstances it's kind of cute.

If they are big ol' pimples it might be a good idea to do SOMETHING about them (just be careful about it).

[Asker]

alll little zits but plenty...

[SteelyMcBeam]

When I was in high school, I had the worst acne on my back. It was so bad. I went to a dermatologist and he was pretty much like "yeah, you are going to be scarred for life".

I look in the mirror today (with help from a hand mirror), and while I do have some scars they don't look that bad (I hope). They kind of turned into freckles (or like freckles). But a lot of it cleared up I think.

Not to scare you or anything. Don't touch your face and, actually, don't over clean it (makes it sensitive).

[Asker]

yeah I ve been to a dermatologist all my life and I use proper creams but I think stress took over me, its nothing major but isn't that smooth skin you know

[SteelyMcBeam]

Okay, I saw the link and I didn't even notice the zits until you told me to look for them. They aren't even noticeable. You have nothing to worry about.

Can't post links yet, but if I could I would point to a girl who is breaking out but kind of looks cute in a way as a result. Maybe this will work?

[Asker]

yeah that's a lot so that wouldn't matter? she could cover with foundation probably

[SteelyMcBeam]

Oh man, now I'm thinking about this one girl who knew me from high school and how she had a little bit of a break-out problem (I'd say a bit more than the picture I posted). She was cute! I wouldn't have minded dating her at all but I was always a little intimidated. I loved her voice and personality. But I'm so terrible with names of people that I don't associate with on a non-weekly basis that I don't even know how to contact her. I would Facebook the f$#% out of her =)

[Asker]

why are you saying that?

[SteelyMcBeam]

You wanted me to confirm that it didn't matter if you had some acne, correct? And I wouldn't even call that link you gave an acne picture at all.

I was giving you a more extreme example to show you how acne doesn't really matter to some extent.

[Asker]

ah cool interesting

[Dragunuv]

There is nothing to feel ashamed about. Pimples are normal they will go away just try to avoid popping them they will leave behind acne scar and don't touch your face a lot and try not to be stressed out that produces more of them.

[Asker]

i know but I can't not stress at the moment I mean I am trying to work out to balance my stress and yeah I always had them but they used to be more discret and less of them and less red

[Dragunuv]

you have to wash your face with hot water and soap and try to use lemon juiice and rub it in your face because of the citrus. drink plenty of water to wash away your inner fluids. and pimples is not a turn off.

[Dragunuv]

everybody has imperfections. not everyone is perfect.

[Jupiter5th]

its not a turn off.

i have really bad acne and I know how selfconcous you can get, people don't really care.

[NerdInDenial]

No, it is not a turn off. No one has flawless skin.

[Asker]

many people do I mean as far as I can see...i mean if he thinks I am nice and pretty he shouldbt care right?!

[NerdInDenial]

Zits appear and disappear. Facial structure and good looking body stays for a while at least.

[stillagoodgirl]

Its not a deal breaker so don't stress it

[taster]

Pimples aren't a turn off...but foundation is...o.O

[Asker]

well I really don't know any girl that doesn't use it...i would never leave home without it

[taster]

My wife does not use it and that is a very good thing...o.O

[taster]

Anyone can do anything they want...does not mean that I have to date them though

[Asker]

well you are old and married to a woman that doesn't use foundation I don't think you need to date anyone

[taster]

this is true...but I always avoided girls that wore foundation and especially bronzer

[Asker]

like this foundation and bronzer huge turn off link

[taster]

Huge turn off? I would not know unless I got closer or touched her or saw her in the sunlight...anyone can look like a statute...is when you touch their face or start making out that it is really gross

[Asker]

thats some bad make up if that happen and there are different types of foundations only old people need the thick ones...

[taster]
